Here's my latest up and coming project. Found this Roadster on Ebay the other day located in central Illinois. Made the trip down after work last night and was pleasantly surprised. The owner has a ton of Model A stuff. It was like being on American pickers, all sorts of cool stuff laying around!
Nice find! You know the "Pickers' would walk past the cars to get the bicycle and cultuvator on the wall. Picked for $5.00 sold for $8.00.
Soooo true on the Pickers , I watched one episode, they walked right past a 40 ford coupe in the yard and bought signs? What the heck!!! By the way, nice score!
American Pickers buy and sell stuff that moves fast. They don't need to make a profit, they're making the money selling the show that someone was dumb enough to put on TV.
Another perfect example of how lame the statement is, " there are no more barn finds left ". Who started that anyway.......................
Here are some pics of the roadster after WD40 and some Windex. It was painted 30 years ago with farm implement paint. I always wanted a roadster and am super excited! High boy, 32 rails, 3 deuce Y-block w/c-4 trans and a Ford 8 or 9 inch. Can't wait.
